Immortal Cultivating Dynasty

Fifty miles north of Lo Capital, there was a valley. The valley was originally nameless because it was a lush bamboo forest. In addition, it was filled with clouds and mist all year round, and there was a scholar who happened to pass by and saw this scene very much. Thus, he gave this small valley a poetic name. It was called Bamboo Cloud Valley.    

    

After taking a last look at the information recorded in the information, Yang Xuan immediately sighed with emotion. As the intelligence gathering organization that prime minister Xu had organized, the Destiny Department was indeed very professional. It even recorded the origin of the place.    

    

"If the information recorded in the data is correct, it should be here."    

    

In the sky, there was a small black dot constantly moving. Looking closer, it was the spiritual pet that Yang Xuan had taken from the Myriad Spirit Sect. It was said that it was the spiritual pet that possessed the bloodline of the Great Peng, Little Black. The two people sitting on the back of the black dot were none other than Yang Xuan and Zhang Tianci.    

    

Little Black stopped above the Bamboo Cloud Valley, hovering in the air. Yang Xuan looked at the valley below. It was just as the information had said. The entire valley was filled with fog, and only the top of the verdant bamboo could be seen.    

    

According to the residents of the Bamboo Cloud Valley, almost no one would come here on normal days. This was because the fog in the bamboo forest was very strange, and it didn't disperse all year round, making it seem like there was a lot of Yin Qi here.    

    

"Little Black, let's go down!"    

    

Yang Xuan patted Little Black's back and let him fall to the ground. Yang Xuan waved his hand and used the Spiritual Force to create a shield around him to block the strong wind.    

    

Zhang Tianci looked hesitant. After struggling in his heart for a while, he couldn't help but ask, "Mr Yang, are you really going to break into the Shadow Pavilion's headquarters?"    

    

Yang Xuan smiled, and his smile revealed a strong confidence.    

    

"That's right. Even if we can't defeat them, we can still escape. Trust me."    

    

Of course, he wasn't confident for no reason. According to the records, Shadow Pavilion Zhong Apart from those who had yet to appear behind the scenes, the strongest elder, Elder Ghost Dragon, was only an Early Sixth Stage warrior. He was the one who had just broken through to the next realm. According to the information that prime minister Xu had dug out from the mouths of the people he had captured, the strongest two were Ghost Blade and Ghost Dragon. They were usually in secluded cultivation, and they might not be able to see them once a year.    

    

Little Black stopped steadily on the ground. When Yang Xuan and Zhang Tianci jumped off Little Black's back, Little Black shook its body and shrunk to the size of a palm. Then, it went into the spirit beast bag.    

    

Yang Xuan closed his eyes. A golden light flashed between his brows. He circulated the Heavenly Eye skill and probed into the canyon.    

    

However, a moment later, Yang Xuan withdrew the Heavenly Eye Art and opened his eyes again. There was a surprised look in his eyes.    

    

"This fog doesn't seem like an ordinary fog. It can actually block the Heavenly Eye's peeping."    

    

"Since that's the case, let's charge in!"    

    

Zhang Tianci's hand swept across the storage bag on his waist, and a long sword appeared in his hand. As Zhang Tianci circulated his Qi, Yang Xuan looked at Zhang Tianci in surprise. This was the first time Zhang Tianci had shown his true strength in front of Yang Xuan. He never thought that the seemingly weak Zhang Tianci would actually show his true strength. He actually possessed the strength of an intermediate Fifth Stage. He could be considered an expert even in the entire Great Wei.    

    

Sensing Yang Xuan's surprise, Zhang Tianci smiled carelessly and said, "If I didn't have some strength, why would prime minister Xu send me to work with you?"    

    

"That makes sense."    

    

Yang Xuan nodded his head in agreement. He no longer held back. He took out the wooden sword from the tower, revealing the strength of a Fifth Stage Perfection.    

    

Zhang Tianci's pupils constricted slightly when he sensed Yang Xuan's aura. If he remembered correctly, Yang Xuan had just entered the Fifth Stage half a year ago.    

    

"I just found a small fortuitous encounter."    

    

After saying that, Yang Xuan didn't stay any longer. The flame on the wooden sword in his hand started burning. He then unleashed the Smoke Step and flew towards the Bamboo Cloud Valley.    

    

Zhang Tianci saw what was happening and quickly chased after him.    

    

The fog in the Bamboo Cloud Valley seemed to be filled with a chilling aura, even though it was circulating the Flame Separation Spell. After Yang Xuan entered the valley, he couldn't help but shiver. As for Zhang Tianci who had a lower cultivation base, his face turned ashen.    

    

Yang Xuan patted Zhang Tianci's shoulder and injected a Spiritual Force filled with scorching Qi into Zhang Tianci's body. Only then did Zhang Tianci's facial expression become much better.    

    

"Thank you, Mr Yang."    

    

After two breaths, Zhang Tianci expelled the cold Qi from his body and circulated the Spiritual Force to form a shield around his body to resist the cold Qi around him.    

    

Yang Xuan waved the wooden sword. Under the hot temperature of the flame, the fog around them disappeared. Only then did their field of vision open up.    

    

"It seems like this should be the headquarters of Shadow Pavilion."    

    

Yang Xuan looked around. There were no other weeds or shrubs besides the bamboo forest. The bamboo was originally of the Yin attribute. In addition to the Yin Qi condensed in the valley, this place was like a paradise for spectral cultivators.    

    

The two of them continued to advance cautiously. Yang Xuan had to clean up the Yin Qi around him along the way. However, the Yin Qi in this valley had been gathering here for countless years. Even though it melted like snow after meeting Li Yan. The Yin Qi in the surroundings once again spread towards them.    

    

Just as Yang Xuan was checking the surroundings to see if there were any clues, he suddenly felt that he had kicked something. That thing seemed to be a ball. After being kicked by Yang Xuan, it rolled forward a few times before stopping. It was actually a skull.    

    

Although it was indeed a very strange thing to see a skull here, it seemed very normal when compared to the Shadow Pavilion that Yang Xuan was looking for.    

    

Just as Yang Xuan subconsciously wanted to move past the skull and continue moving forward, Zhang Tianci stopped and walked towards the skull.    

    

He saw Zhang Tianci knocking the skull in his hand and sniffing it with his nose. Just when Yang Xuan couldn't help wondering if Zhang Tianci had some sort of comfortable hobby, Zhang Tianci said, "The bone marrow in this skull hasn't dried up yet. It should have just died not long ago. Mr Yang, if you have a probing skill, you can try to find the qi left behind by this person."    

    

"Okay."    

    

Yang Xuan nodded his head and circulated the Heavenly Eye skill to search the surroundings.    

    

Sure enough, Yang Xuan found some clues in the middle of the bamboo that he had just passed by.    

    

"There's a small scale formation operating there."    

    

Yang Xuan pointed at the bamboo and said to Zhang Tianci. He even walked to the side of the bamboo and knocked on it with his hand. The originally hollow bamboo was knocked twice by Yang Xuan. It made a dull sound. It was obvious that there was something fishy about it.    

    

Yang Xuan rubbed his chin and pulled the bamboo out from the ground. Suddenly, the two of them felt their vision blur. They looked around and saw that there was no longer any bamboo forest or fog.
